well guys, i think i am changing up my style and look of the tib a bit.. still keeping the blue/dark scheme but imma darken up the 'dark'.

im thinking of getting the scoote or scoote 2 hood (one without front vent) painting the mirrors, roof, hatch, and spoiler gloss black, as well as painting the rims gloss black. i am going to be tinting my headlights and corners black also, but professionally this time.. lol i think the top being black, with dark tints, tinted tails, etc. would look very good, and the black rims would make it look even better.. i am kind of sick of CF since EVERYone has or is getting it, and i want the scheme to flow better, why i wanna do two tone.

i was wondering what peoples thoughts are on my idea.. dont comment on the hood cuz i want the damn thing.. love the 'gills' look and my bumper has no grill opening so the scoop in the front might look OK..

can anyone also do some chops for me, of at least those items in black, as well as rims and maybe the scoote hood if possible.. thanx guys

for the two tone on the hatch, i was gonna have the black end right at the end of the integrated spoiler looking thing. lol hope ya know what i mean. and on the side, the black would carry from the hood line to about 1/2" or so under the windows to the hatch.. u can kinda see where it would be from the pics..




will give the car a nice fresh new look, and another original style.. so hit me up with comments guys.. good or bad i dont care lol..

two tone paintjobs are allright if u get it done right. u should do the entire top of car black if u do, and make sure the line is nice and flowing, maybe just above the fender bluges and have it stop at the hatch glass in the back. if u did it from there up in gloss black it would probably not look too bad. idk just my opinion

If you go with the Scoote hood, make sure it's the one without the front scoop... I don't think that'd look too tidy, considering how high up the RD2 hood starts.

To be honest, I think your car is damn near perfect as it is though... the ATH spoiler is cool too but your car looked much cleaner without it, IMO.

Looking at your pics, there is another line that I reckon would look sweet for your two-tone project... I'd chop it for you but don't have the software to do it at the moment sad.gif

I'll see if I can do it over the next few days or so.

I'm going 2 tone too my man.

Get the scoote 2, I'll get the Scoote 1.

Hell, you do yours black on the top and blue on the bottom and I'll do the reverse.

LOL

That would be bad ass at shows.

Anyways, give me my friggin spoiler back.
